How Shortlist works

Everything you need to know — whether you're hiring or applying.

For Hiring Teams

Post, screen, and shortlist

From creating a job to making your final picks — here's how every step works.

Post a role with title, description, and requirements.

Add the questions candidates will answer on video. Use AI suggestions or write your own.

Copy your unique job link and share it anywhere — job boards, email, social media.

Watch candidate videos in your dashboard. See the real person behind every application.

Move candidates through stages on your kanban board. Shortlist the best, archive the rest.
